Hmm not many people here would admit that. I once was on the turnpike and noticed a shower of sparks coming from underneath a truck that was passing me. I thought "Look at that idiot. He doesnt even know sparks are coming out of his truck!"

He passed me and the sparks were still there.

They were from MY car.

Years ago I was driving from Squaw Valley, CA to Carnelian Bay, CA with some friends after a day of skiing. We had almost reached Carnelian Bay when I realized that I had left my Day Planner (with my DL, bankcard, money, etc. in it) on top of the car. I pulled over at the next safe point and the ski rack had kept the Day Planner on top of the car (!) during the somewhat twisty journey.
